Burgess Island Cottage on Lake Joseph – A Muskoka Gem
Discover the magic of Muskoka island living with this rare and remarkable property on Burgess Island, nestled in the heart of Lake Joseph. This sold Muskoka cottage retreat offered 370 feet of pristine shoreline and 3.1 acres of beautifully forested land, delivering unmatched privacy and serenity.
The classic pine-paneled cottage is uniquely positioned right at the water’s edge with a grandfathered setback—perfect for waking up to the gentle sound of waves and soaking in spectacular sunrises from the front deck. A winding moss-and-rock path led to a sheltered swim dock, ideal for swimming, paddling, and relaxing in calm waters protected from prevailing westerly winds.
Located just minutes by boat from Foots Bay, Port Sandfield, and the Lake Joseph Club, this Muskoka island escape combined convenience with seclusion. A separate two-bedroom guest bunkie with a half bath provided additional space for visitors, while the level terrain ensured easy movement across the property.
With potential to build a custom two-storey boathouse, this sale represented a long-term investment in Muskoka waterfront living at its finest.
